About the conference
LibPMC brings together practitioners, researchers, educators and students
interested in all aspects of performance measurement in library and
information services in any context. The goal of library performance
measurement and assessment is to understand how well a library is meeting
stakeholder needs, with the aim of driving improvement. Key features of
library performance measurement include a focus on the needs of
stakeholders and communities, actively using qualitative and quantitative
data to improve services and the user experience, and communicating the
results and outcomes of assessment activities.
Past conferences have provided a mix of invited speakers, contributed
papers and workshops designed to stimulate discussion, provide ideas for
measuring and improving library performance, and develop new concepts and
techniques to advance the field. The conference is the longest-running
conference on this subject and is truly international, welcoming
participants from all countries.
